About Melissa

As a nurturing and experienced childcare provider with five years in the field, I'm passionate about creating a safe, fun, and educational environment for children of all ages. My own children inspire me to be that "step-in" parental figure for others while they're away! Patient, calm, creative, and friendly, I believe in open communication with parents, providing regular updates via their preferred method. I follow their lead when enforcing household rules and prioritize activities that align with their child's interests. From outdoor sports and physical games to board games and puzzles, I love engaging children in activities that promote learning and development. With experience caring for up to four children, I'm comfortable with various age groups, including infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children. Beyond childcare, I'm happy to assist with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision.
